Celebrate Elegantly Said Corner Flip Card Blog Hop!

 


Hello! Welcome to October's blog hop. This month's theme is Celebrate! Just in time too because on October 26, I will be celebrating my silver wedding anniversary - 25 years of wedded bliss! I am so grateful to have a wonderful partner.


For this blog hop I am showcasing a few elements of the Elegantly Said suite, including stamp set, Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!® in the annual catalog using the corner flip fun fold. 

There are so many things to celebrate - life, health, and hope to see the end of the pandemic. But this bundle combined with the Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper is also perfect to CELEBRATE weddings and other everyday opportunities to say "Thank you", "Happy Birthday" or just to say "You're Amazing!". 


Below are the measurements to make this beautiful card 

  • Basic Gray Cardstock for the card base - 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4”
  • Shimmery White Cardstock - 2-3/4” x 2-3/4”
  • Specialty Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper (DSP) pattern 4” x 5-1/4” for outside and 4 1/8" x 5 3/4" for inside
  • Basic White Cardstock - 3 3/4” x 4 1/4” for inside
  • Scraps of Basic Gray cardstock for stamping and punching oval sentiment piece  
  • Silver foil for numbers 2 and 5 Playful Alphabet dies  and "Years" from the Word Wishes dies 


 
Instructions
  • Adhere 4" x 5 1/4" Simply Elegant DSP to front of the card base.
  • Place the corner of the card base on your trimmer at 3" with the long edge along the ruler. Make a cut inside the card base from 3" to 5/8".
  • Rotate the card base clockwise and place the corner at 2 1/2". Make a cut from 3" to 5/8", meeting the first cut.
  • Push the bottom left corner of the cut “L” and push it through, pulling the top right corner toward the middle of the card front. Use a Bone Folder to get a good crease on the diagonals of the fold. Secure the corner with Stampin' Seal+.
  • Decorate the Shimmery White Cardstock - 2-3/4” x 2-3/4” with the numbers (25) and "Years" and adhere to square at the front of the card. I use adhesive foam sheets with the numbers.
  • Layer the 4 1/8" x 5 3/4" on the inside with the Basic White 3 3/4” x 4 1/4”
